Crafton affordable apartments to get energy-efficient upgrade due to Inflation Reduction Act funds

Read in WESA, a local affordable apartment complex for seniors will soon see a major investment aimed at improving housing quality for residents, increasing energy efficiency, and guarding against future climate problems.

The $6.1 million award was announced Thursday at Crafton Towers by Acting Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Adrianne Todman, flanked by a host of local officials and housing advocates.

“As we’re making these investments, we also have to make sure we’re investing in the future: that when the summers are really hot, our seniors are cool inside, when our winters are really cold, our seniors are safe inside,” Todman said. “So these investments are a two-fer — to invest in affordable housing like this building, but also to make sure we’re doing it in a way that protects us against the storms and weather events to come. And that, to me, is a smart investment.”

The investment in Crafton — part of the Green and Resilient Retrofit Program funded by the Inflation Reduction Act — was part of a larger $69.1 million round of awards announced Thursday by HUD officials.
